ABOUT THE SITES

Birkmere Paintball Site

Lake District Paintball's main site is at Birkmere Wood, 4 miles from Penrith and Junction 40 of the M6

Paintball Site

Our Paintball games take place in 400 acres of private deciduous woodland. The paintball playing area offers great natural cover as well as buildings and trench systems.The terrain lends itself to military style scenario paintball game play. We have deliberately kept the paintball playing area as natural as possible, making use of the existing forest landscape to provide a unique playing area. Once you’re in among it you’ll see why, just you, the forest and the game! Trenches, Fallen trees, hidden buildings and bunkers.

Paintball Site Safety

At Lake District paintball we want you to have an enjoyable and safe paint balling experience. We put a lot of attention into creating great game play structures and a comfortable safe area with weather proof shelters and fire pit. The paintball site safe area is netted off from the playing arena to allow players and spectators to watch the games in total safety.

Paintball Safety Briefing

At lake District Paintball we want you to feel, valued and safe. On arrival you will be greeted by a member of staff, issued with NBC camouflage jackets and trousers and gloves. Once suited up the Paintball marshal will give the safety briefing which includes the use of, face mask, paintball marker, safe area as well as site rules.

On completion of the safety brief all paint balling participants must sign the indemnity form to confirm they understand the inherent dangers of the game and the consequences of not following the safety brief. They will then be allocated teams and then issued paintball markers.

Paintball Games

At Lake District Paintball we like to keep the action intense and engaging. Games are fast paced and last between 10-15 minutes. Before each paintball game the teams will be briefed on the objective and given time to discuss team tactics before the game begins. In an average session we will run 10 - 12 games with the addition of a last man standing or Cumbrian Stag Hunt to finish.

Game Scenarios

We can structure any session to meet the requirements of our groups and can vary the type of games we play to ensure maximum time playing and minimum time sitting in the safe area.
